Watch: India’s Russian oil imports hit 48% as U.S. readies 100% tariffs

India imported 8.7 million metric tonnes of Russian crude in June, while overall crude imports fell sharply. The UAE also recorded a historic 17.5% share, meaning Russia and the UAE together accounted for nearly two-thirds of India’s oil imports.
